The Ministry of Health wanted to clarify today (Saturday) that the delivery of the vaccines to the corona virus that was transmitted to the Palestinian Authority yesterday was completely normal.
In the ministry's announcement, it was clarified that Pfizer vaccines that were handed over to the authority are the same on the expiration date as those currently given to Israeli citizens.
The ministry's announcement comes following an order by Palestinian Prime Minister Muhammad Eshetia last night to cancel the agreement, after he claimed that the portions transferred did not meet the standard.
The ministry said in a statement: "The Palestinian Ministry of Health has received proper Pfizer vaccines, at expiration dates that were known, agreed upon and in accordance with the agreement between the parties. early".
A political source explained yesterday that the Ministry of Health insisted in a statement in Hebrew about the vaccination agreement that the State of Israel "will transfer about one million vaccine doses, which expire soon, to the Palestinian Authority" - a wording that created the crisis.
According to the source, the Palestinians translated the message into Arabic, which led the Palestinian public to assume that they are receiving expired vaccines - although this is not the case - "Even an Israeli citizen who seeks vaccination today will receive a vaccine that expires in June."

"The announcement, its translation and the media coverage on Palestinian social networks embarrassed the Palestinian Authority, which announced that it intended to return the vaccines," the source concluded.
Her wife's directive yesterday to return the vaccines that were transferred back to Israel came after the harsh criticism the PA received on social media about the terms of the agreement.
As part of the agreement, Israel was to deliver to the West Bank about one million Pfizer vaccines that will expire soon, and receive in return the same amount of new vaccine doses in September and October, at the expense of the shipment destined for the PA.
The reviews throughout the network accused the authority of taking the excess vaccines of the Israelis, while paying them the price of new doses.
